Nkwazi this afternoon dealt Zanaco another blow in their Faz Super Division title ambitions after beating The Bankers this afternoon in Lusaka.
Nkwazi dispatched Zanaco to their second successive league defeat just three days after visitors Konkola Blades beat them 3-2 at Sunset Stadium.
Zanaco this time went down 1-0 away to Nkwazi at Edwin Emboela Stadium in a rescheduled Week 20 game.
The two teams braved an afternoon downpour that slashed on Lusaka on Wednesday and left the players slipping and skidding their way through a match that looked destined for a scoreless draw.
Nkwazi’s winner came seven minutes before fulltime when Peter Lungu headed in the ball from a Perry Mutapa cross.
The win sees Nkwazi exchange places in the drop zone with Kabwe Warriors in 13th and 14th position respectively.
Zanaco meanwhile, stay put in 5th place after 25 games on 40 points and five points behind leaders Red Arrows.

#3 It’s not over until its over for teamz from Red Arrows up to Roan United az the eleven can all win the league, everything being equal. The first six just have a slight edge over the other five, but going by the performance so far, no team can be guaranteed the title.
